MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING A PREWOUND REEL
1. Hold the outer spool with one hand and unscrew the
bump knob counterclockwise (Fig. 11). Inspect the bolt
inside the bump knob to make sure it moves freely.
Replace the bump knob if damaged.
2. Remove the old inner reel from the outer spool
(Fig. 12).
3. Remove the spring from the old inner reel
(Fig. 12).
4. Place the spring in the new inner reel.
NOTE: The spring must be assembled on the inner reel
before reassembling the cutting attachment.
5. Insert the ends of the line through the eyelets in the
outer spool (Fig. 19).
6. Place the new inner reel inside the outer spool. Push the
inner reel and outer spool together. While holding the
inner reel and outer spool, grasp the ends and pull firmly
to release the line from the holding slots in the spool.
7. Hold the inner reel in place and install the bump knob
by turning clockwise. Tighten securely.
